Tire Break-In; Troubleshooting - KYMCO Super 8 50 Owner's Manual

OPERATION
The 200 mile (300 km) service should be performed as
outlined in the maintenance schedule section of this
owner's manual. Pay particular attention to the cautions
and warnings in the maintenance schedule section.
Unless you have formal training as a service techni-
cian and have access to KYMCO technical reference
materials, it is strongly suggested that you have the
initial service performed by a KYMCO dealer.
Breaking in the new tires
New tires need proper break-in to assure maximum per-
formance, just as your scooter's engine does. Wear in the
tread surface by gradually increasing your cornering lean
angles over the first 100 miles (160 km) before attempting
maximum lean angles. Avoid hard acceleration, hard cor-
nering, and hard braking for the first 100 miles (160 km).
Failure to break in your tires could cause the tires to
slip and could result in you losing control of the scooter.
Use extra care when riding on new tires. Perform proper
break-in of the tires as described in this Owner's Manual
and avoid hard acceleration, hard cornering, and hard
braking for the first 100 miles (160 km).

Troubleshooting

It can be fustrating if your scooter fails to start or stops run-
ning while your are riding. In the rare instance this hap-
pens, take a few moments to check some items and you
may be back to riding your scooter soon.
